      I was given this book by my mother for a graduation gift. Then she actually made me read it before I left for college. Great motivational book on who to be successful in every endeavor of life. Most like overdue for a re-read.

      A masterpiece in self help self improvement everyone shoul read this book
    • 4/5
      The habits set out in the book are very basic but that is exactly the reason why they are so easily overlooked by people, and therefore neglected in practice. Covey presents an interesting, all encompassing, principles-based way of living your life. I listened to the audiobook version in 1 week during my drives to and from work. I would definitely recommend The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. Even if you aren’t going to use Covey’s entire system, just thinking about some of his points will be beneficial.

      most valuable and influential book I've read, thus far, in my life. I'll keep going back to this since there is a lot of valuable information and repetition is key
    • 5/5
      It might sound cliché but I've always found myself wanting in the aspect of listening just to respond. I got myself in a situation immediately after chapter 5 and I tried hard to practice. I was rough but I know it'll take time.. Such an amazing read. Funny it's my second time reading the book. I was pretty much younger when I read it the first time

    • 5/5
      I found this book to be inspiring and practical at the same time. I have already begun to put its pearls of wisdom into practice.
    • 5/5
      Simply put, the best Non-fiction book I have ever read (and I have read hundreds). I reread this book at least once a year to try to center my life in good principles and continue my personal growth. The principles are as relevant today as they have ever been. I can not recommend this book more strongly.
